Really cool seeing all the Trey Mancini love around the league. Fans, announcers, MLB Network anchors...etc. 

The Twins announcers treated him well yesterday.  It is nice to see.  The guys that called the game yesterday were very good

Agreed, even if the play by play guy said Rylan Brannon 10 times.

Yes he did.  I think that happens in the spring especially.  They both seemed very disappointed that Rutschman did not make the trip.

Akin another rough outing.  1.2 IP  2 ER 3 H, 3 BB, 4 K.

 

I think only one of Akin or Kremer make the OD roster.  Kremer may have the lead.

I'm pretty skeptical of that, I think Means/Akin/Kremer all have OD roster spots locked down

Agreed. Not many better options.

Zimmerman is doing well in the spring. I think he is an option. Akin in his 2 outings is having trouble throwing strikes.
I also think we could see Lopez or a waiver claim join the rotation.
The starting rotation is likely to stink. I think Means will be good. The rest is all a huge question mark.

The Orioles are in the win column today.  4-3.

 

Galvis had 3 hits.

[Mike B]

Felix makes his second spring start. It would be nice to see the velocity tick up a little.

You can tell this is a road game.

Orioles lead the Pirates 5-4 in the 3rd but not a good time for King Felix..

2.2 IP 5 H 4 R 3 ER 0 BB 1 K.

[Mike B]

Mountcastle has a 2 RBI double.

Sanchez 2 H and a RBI

[Mike B]

Jorge Lopez 3 decent innings.  

3 IP 1 ER, 1 H 2 BB and 3 K.

 

The third Oriole pitcher to go 3.

[Mike B]

Oriole Park cleared to allow 11,000 fans in for the beginning of the season. 

 

About 30 K less than needed for OD, but about twice as much as needed after that.

Real good outing from Means today

4 IP  2 H 1 ER  1BB 4 K

 

The first Oriole to go 4 this spring.

[Mike B]

Paul Fry got crushed for the 3rd time

1.2 IP  5 H 5 R, 4 ER  1 BB 0 K

[Mike B]

The Orioles lose again today 6-2.  The bats remain quiet.

 

Hays had an RBI single, which was one of only 4 hits.   Two more errors today by the Orioles.  If this team continues to struggle to catch the ball, the pitching will be really be put under duress.
